The BubsNest Verdict

The Carriwell nursing bra is a solid choice for expectant and new mums, praised by many for its comfortable, stretchy fabric and supportive fit during the changing stages of pregnancy and breastfeeding. While some note the bra's material can cling to clothing, the breathability and quick drying time are seen as worthwhile trade-offs. Parents find the bra particularly helpful during the engorged early stages of nursing, when comfort and ease are paramount.

What parents love

Comfortable, stretchy fabricParents highlight the bra's soft, elastic material as being very comfortable and accommodating of changing breast size during pregnancy and nursing.
Supportive without underwireThe bra provides good support and lift without any rigid or restrictive underwire, which many find preferable during sensitive stages.
Versatile for pregnancy and nursingThe included extender allows the bra to be worn comfortably throughout pregnancy and into the nursing phase.

Worth knowing

Fabric can cling to clothingSome parents note the bra's stretchy, elastic material has a tendency to cling to tops and shirts, though the breathability is seen as a worthwhile trade-off.
Less boosting for smaller bustsTowards the end of the nursing journey, when breasts are smaller, a few parents felt the Carriwell bra provided less lift and shaping than they preferred.

Best for

  • Expectant and new mums during pregnancy and early nursing stages
  • Those seeking comfort and support without underwire

May not suit
